1) If the researcher wanted to compare the difference in stress levels between husbands and wives in heterosexual marriages, what would be the appropriate statistical test? -chi-square test of independence -correlation -z-test -one-sample t-test -dependent samples t-test -independent samples t-test -one-way between-subjects ANOVA 2) If the counselor wishes to determine whether scores on an anxiety test change for the same group of clients at before and after a consultation, what would be the appropriate test? -chi-square test of independence -correlation -z-test -one-sample t-test -dependent samples t-test -independent samples t-test -one-way between-subjects ANOVA

Researchers were interested in comparing the depression levels for Australian adults from four different age groups (18 to 29; 30 to 39; 40 to 49; and 50 to 59). They suggested that depression levels for 18 to 29 year olds would be lower compared to 30 to 39 year olds. They also expected this difference in depression levels to be greater for females than for males. Note: depression levels were measured on a metric scale, with higher values indicating higher levels of depression. What further analyses should we produce? Group of answer choices Run a between-subjects ANOVA with depression score as the IV and AgeGroup as the DV Run a regression with depression score as the IV and AgeGroup as the DV Run a between-subjects ANOVA with depression score as the DV and AgeGroup as the IV Run a correlation with depression score as the DV and AgeGroup as the IV

For each of the studies described below, choose the statistical technique that would be most appropriate. Be precise (i.e., there is only one correct answer for each scenario). G. A developmental psychologist developed a theory that predicted the proportion of children who would, during a period of stress, cling to the mother, attack the mother, or attack a younger sibling. The situation was set up, and the responses of 50 children were recorded. H. To evaluate if there is a difference in longevity based on location of residence (rural vs. urban), a researcher collected data on the age at death of identical twins, where one twin lived in a rural location and one lived in an urban location. I. A researcher is interested in whether scores on a depression inventory collected following 6 weeks of therapy are different from the national mean depression inventory score. J. In a study, a developmental psychologist tested the same children three times, at ages 10, 11, and 12. At each age, they worked on a set of 25 logic problems. The percentage correct on the test each year was compared to see if there was an age difference/developmental effect in logic ability.
